Translate English Text to Hindi in Android

Question

I want to convert a text in English to Hindi and display it in the TextView.I followed the following URL http://android-er.blogspot.com/2009/10/androidtranslate-using-google-translate.html but it dosen't seems to work. Is there any other method to do it?Help me out.

public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    setContentView(R.layout.read_view);
    mTts = new TextToSpeech(this,this);
    try {
        setTranslate();
    } catch (Exception e) {
        e.printStackTrace();
    }

}

private void setTranslate() throws Exception {
 String OutputString = Translate.execute("hello",
         Language.ENGLISH, Language.HINDI);
 TextView tv = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.translate);
 tv.setText(OutputString);
}

Here I am trying to display hindi text in the TextView id "translate"
